CROSS PROJECT is committed to the enhancement of the territory: rooted between the shores of Lake Maggiore and Lake Orta, in Piedmont (Italy), in a highly suggestive landscape context, CROSS Project works by opening a fertile dialogue between cultural heritage, landscape and Performing Arts.

CROSS is a project that brings together different artistic research activities by developing production, training and the promotion of projects related to contemporary performing arts languages, focused on interdisciplinar practices, and able to create a relation to the theme of inner and spiritual research.

Playing with languages for CROSS means making the layers interact, aiming to enhance the intrinsic spirituality of the chosen places and inviting the public to a different way of listening, preparatory to an inner journey, throughout the creation of new liturgies.
